Apr 29, 2025Complaint
The facility failed to ensure that exit doors in the Assisted Living and Special Care Units had engaged audible alarms. Specifically, three exit doors in the AL unit were not functioning correctly, and one exit door in the SCU was propped open, allowing disoriented residents to exit the facility without staff knowledge.
